    Dan Martin C, mon nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

    That would be great too. But they need to go early. Give Froome a sniff of the stage and it's all over. Probably.

    Forum Ventoux leaderboard?

    I did 1:12 on a 39x23 in 2002. It was rubbish.

    That's seriously impressive.

    although depends where you measured from :wink: Strava leaderboard is here - http://app.strava.com/segments/726124

    That leader board will change today. I figure Ten Dam will ride up it a little faster then 14.1 mph!

    Amazing powers of recovery from Sky, from having the whole team blow up two days ago, to being on the front yesterday and now setting the pass up the Ventoux.

    Golly, I am sorry if I made a logical observation. Don't get your knickers in a twist lass.

    You mean after sitting behind Europcar and Movistar all day and then shedding riders within a few minutes of the hurt going on. Seek help.

    And I'm just making the observation that it was nice to have at least one spoiler thread without people bringing up this crap. Lass.

    The usual suspects are showing up and doing what they always do: refuse to see anything that might be wrong and go for insults. Just like the USPS days. :lol:

    Not much until Ventoux started. Sagan in the break so he got all the points. Movistar on the front for a while. Sky blows things up at the front as soon as Ventoux starts.

    Exciting bish-bash at intermediary sprint which Sagan won with a wheely over the line. Greipel and Cav came over like little old ladies going to church.

    Other than that, not much.
